We decided on a dual pattern (alternating) carving on the pommel for a very medieval , handmade look.

"A mean wee beastie, not so forceful as the Hammer nor elegant as the saber. No, a fearsome blade for fen and warren, where the shadow clings close. A vicious light where the dark thinks to be safe."

I *love* how she's shaping up! Seems like the first among a badge of the Hunter's Lodge.

Stunning work, amazing design. This looks like it would do wonderfully at getting between gaps of armour My video response to the other thread is the same as this one

Fantastic design. A weapon fit for the perfect paladin. Bravo!

I like things to be less than perfect on my weapons, it makes them seem authentically handcrafted with medieval methods.

I agree.

However, there are certainly some things that could be cleaner and executed nicer even with hand tools.

An example of a very high level of symmetry and execution even in a period piece would be the Henry the 8th armor sets, basically any of them but especially those of his later life.

That's a very good point, some of those early 16th century armor suits are absolutely jaw dropping.

mrstabby: Been thinking the same - but the person that set up the page might not be there anymore and old code gets messy when not maintained. Might be a "repair subscriptions, destroy function X, repair X, destroy Y" situation by now - would mean a total overhaul. Nov 18, 2024 7:29:27 GMT
